than the first row. The third row is a little narrower than the 

 cephalothorax at that place. 



The clypeus and falces are inclined backward. The 

 clypeus is one-third as high as the anterior middle eyes. The 

 falces are weak and short. 



Our only specimen has been very badly rubbed. The 

 cephalothorax is dark reddish-brown, and seems to have been 

 entirely covered with white hairs. The abdomen is pale with 

 a line of dark chevrons down the middle and some dark flecks 

 on the sides, and has some long white hairs at the front end 

 which grow toward the cephalothorax. The first and second 

 pairs of legs are dark reddish-brown, the third and fourth are 

 lighter and more yellowish. 



It is quite possible that this is the male of Euophrys 

 newtonii. 



We have a single male from Ysobol, Guatemala.

A medium-sized species with a distinct pattern in black, 

 white and red on the abdomen. 



This species is like delecta in the position of the eyes and 

 the shape of the cephalothorax, excepting that it rounds oflF 

 more suddenly from the dorsal eyes, falling decidedly in the 

 first third of the thoracic part and then still more steeply. The 

 falces are vertical and are small in the female, while in the 

 male they are moderately long and stout. The clypeus is 

 inclined backward. 



The cephalothorax of the female is black covered with red 

 hairs. There are two transverse white bands, one just above 

 the anterior eyes and the other at the dorsal eyes, and on the
